Commissioned by Klaw starting in the late 1940s, his bondage fantasy chapter serials earned him underground fame. While Stanton began his career as a bondage fantasy artist for Irving Klaw, the majority of his later work depicted gender role reversal and proto-feminist female dominance scenarios.
Wikipedia sums him up this way (avoiding Ditko):Įric Stanton was an American underground cartoonist and fetish art pioneer.
The other fascinating aspect to Stanton is that he probably helped Steve Ditko invent Spider-Man. I’m more fascinated by his work than his psyche. Why he did that is a question for his psychoanalyst, not me. First, he could draw beautiful sexy women but chose to portray them in physical combat or bound, strapped, and gagged in the best dominance tradition.
STANTON IS A FASCINATING FIGURE in cartooning for at least two reasons. Features Eric Stanton: Master Fetish Artist
